that's odd. they're supposed to have an auto shutoff for that exact reason???

i've had awesome experiences with stealths

I've left them completely out of the water before without realizing it, and they turned off. I've dropped mine as well, and smacked them against the glass, stuff like that. Mine have been almost bullet proof.

I've got about 4 in total, with two still running in my bin of liverock

Marineland did send me replacements for the ones that stopped working. In the meantime I had a third die on me. I really don't think I am doing anything worg, I've just been cures with bad stealth luck I guess?
